Ooh, Dino Rossi is so slimey...........
Watched the debate between Gregoire and Rossi tonight, and I have to say, I can't stand Rossi. He is smarmy, arrogant, and a liar to boot. He all but said that the election was stolen from him in 2004. All in all though, I think Gregoire did very well tonight. Oh, did I mention how much I can't stand Dino Rossi?

1. Rossi is just another corrupt repuke. Unfortunately...
he has a real chance of winning.

2. Yes, I know he does..................
if people just understood that he supports virtually every position of Bush. He is another George Bush; he pretends just like George Bush did eight years ago that he'll be a kinder, gentler governor, and a uniter. Oh my God, what a load of shit that is!

3. Not sure where you are, but Darcy Burner is another that I would like
to see win, she came close last time around. Have you seen any polling?

4. it is sooo upsetting...
when phone banking, I talked to many people who were voting for Barack...
but were going with Rossi for Gov....because they feel Gregoire had sunk the state into debt.
He has some very convincing sounding ads playing.

5. Yes, but his is where I blame the voters.............
it is so easy to find out what he has done in the past, what he's supported, and the fact that he os in line with just about every Bush position. If this country had done that eight years ago, Gore would be our president.

7. Those are nasty deceptive ads. I hate them, too.
I wish she'd come out with something explaining that the current biennium's budget IS balanced. And that whoever is elected will have to decide about cuts, because income projected for this next biennium will be lower.

6. I've thought he might make a good Republican candidate for President.
Edited on Wed Oct-01-08 11:27 PM by FVZA_Colonel
Not actually a good President, mind you, but if he wins in 2008 someone who could run in 2012 or 2016.




On Edit: And I thought Gregoire was actually supposed to be ahead a point or two in the polls?

8. And he's trying to run away from the Republican label because he knows
that if people understood where he stands, they wouldn't vote for him.

Slimy is right. He's a worm.

9. His commercials are just as slimey as he is.
I mentioned the other day that the male actor in the commercial with the older couple discussing casinos looks like he could be Rossi's father.

10. I hope more votes in the east will help
I live in the middle of WA and last time no signs for Chris at all they all said Rossi and this time I see as many for her as I do him and this is in Wenatchee area which is very very red.

Democrats are coming out this time, not as fearful. I worked at the office last week and they are doing most of their calling to help Chris as well as Obama.

11. Rossi is a slimeball and a scumbag.
He lies so easily, it makes me sick.

I love living here, but if he's elected, I may need to go back to Oregon.

And by the way, DINO, the '04 election was NOT stolen.

12. scares the hell out of me
have you looked at the BIAW website? ultra - RW wingers and he is their guy.
so much for the entire dept of labor and industries - safety regs bye bye
fair workers comp (not that it was great anyway) it will get worse with more self-insureds and dishonest evals
so much for dept of ecology and the Puget Sound cleanup

I just wish Gregoire had a better campaign - she is good in debates but Rossi has been hammering her in the ads and there has not been a good response from her.
